"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I have watched "Something The Lord Made" a bunch of times. Fascinating flick with quite a few Wire alums in it too. Rickman's character was fascinating, because sometimes he was a partner and sometimes an antagonist. Which is really more how people are than the baddie that's all "I don't expect you to talk, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die." I know I'm betraying major ideological bias, as well as showing my age, but why would anybody see a Reagan movie?(sorry, Mr. Rickman.) Maybe it's for people who think the animated Grinch Stole Christmas was too biased toward Whos.(No, I'm kidding. I'm sure it could be interesting,(for someone else) if Oliver Stone is not allowed to get anywhere near it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Anyone else ever seen Kaleidoscope? It's a '60s caper film. It seems that one company manufactures all of the playing cards used in all of the casinos in the world, and Warren Beatty (young, wearing horn-rimmed glasses that make him look earnest/sexy) plays a guy who's figured a way to mark all of the cards at the factory. Of course, eventually things get complicated, and not just because Susannah York plays the love interest....

Light entertainment of the kind that the '60s did so well. Hardly great art, but a movie that knows what it is and is comfortable with that.

Oddly enough, Alexis Denisof and Amy Acker sound a bit weird to me in those clips, but Clark Gregg and Reed Diamond sound right at home with the language.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Okay, I want Joss to do ALL THE SHAKESPEARE, EVER. Please?

Because books.

Oh man, I can't wait. That looks incredible. Love the music they chose for the trailer -- it sets the tone perfectly.

Compassionately intolerant

Preeetttyy.

I have to agree with P-C where Alexis is concerned. His voice just not sound comfortable with the cadence.

It reminds me of how much more I liked Wesley when he went from his natural pitch to the lower, growlier tone of later Angel seasons.

Hm. It's the same with Holtz's actor's voice (please don't make me look up how to spell his name). I got an audiobook he read specifically because I loved his voice, but was disappointed by the higher pitched, whinier tone.

Still?

Can't wait.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Also agree with P-C, but otherwise think the trailer looks great. I'm bound and determined to see more throughout the year so I'm hoping to make it to this one.
